Virginia vacation rentals

My family stayed at Emerald Escape for a last summer getaway and we had a blast. The home is beautiful, inviting, and exactly as described in pictures. There was 14 guests in my family and the house didn’t seem crowded at all. Still very spacious and comfortable. You can tell the hosts are passionate about their home. They really thought of everything when it comes to accommodation to amenities that creates that provides for an incredible stay! They have even partnered with some chefs who can cook a meal for you. We used Chef Dan and he was delightful. The home is right on the resort so attractions were a stone throw away. We did 2 attractions but staying indoors was just as good. Erika was a very responsive host from start to finish. It didn’t matter what time, she responded promptly within minutes. Thank you for helping my family create a memory that will stay with us for a lifetime.

So happy we found the Tiny Red Barn. Our stay couldn't have been more perfect. Virginia & Stephen were the best hosts. Great communication before booking answering all my questions about the area and accommodations. Upon arrival we were greeted and got to enjoy freshly baked cookies. Also, thanks to the chickens for the fresh eggs. The Red Barn was close to all the activities we wanted to see. We went to Richmond for the day. We took the Hollywood Cemetery Gem Car tour, it was so interesting and beautiful. We took a fun segway tour of the city. We enjoyed the sights and activities of Williamsburg, Jamestown and Yorktown for several days, so much to do. Easily traveling from barn to these activities each day and coming back and forth to rest in between. The barn had everything we needed, plus some. We appreciated our homemade soap gift left for us. The Barn is so comfy and the decor is so cute. We enjoyed our family time spent at the barn enjoying nature, playing games, such a beautiful place to relax and enjoy our vacation. We highly recommend staying at the Tiny Red Barn, it made our vacation PERFECT!

Family from VA, Connecticut and North Carolina gathered for a football game getaway weekend. We enjoyed reuniting at this wonderful retreat!!! Games, wine by the fireside, great conversations and memories made. Plenty of space for this party of 9 adults and 5 kids from infant to teen!!! Didn’t have to make beds or run out for the basics!! House was clean and stocked with coffee, tea, half & half, cleaning supplies for dishes. We were pleased and overwhelmed by the generosity of the homeowners. Family plans to rent again soon for Friendsgiving!!!!

This place was the perfect two day stay for me and my fiancé before heading off to Lockn’ Festival. Only 25 minutes from the festival grounds, and secluded enough in the woods. Pure silence at night, except for the peepers which is so relax. Our host was wonderful! She answered any question we had while still respecting your privacy, and checked in on us (via message) to make sure our stay was up to our standards. The place was super clean, smelt great (just like a woody cabin), and so much attention to small details to make your stay easy. You really only need to show up with your clothes and any food you want to eat, that’s it. Gold star for this awesome spot and can’t wait to hopefully return. - Anybody going to Lockn Festival in the future years: this is the perfect couple night stay before the festival. Wood Ridge Brewery was super cool, only 15 mins away. And the ladies who work at the Exxon gas station (15 mins away off of 29) were so nice to us, and literally made us the most bomb breakfast sandwiches on biscuits! Perfect stop before heading off to Lockn’!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

I stayed at this location with my mom, sister and a dog. After a long hike (for us at least) at the Shenandoah National Park Libby's place was less than 30 minutes away from our trail (we went to South River Falls Trail - highly recommended!) This was perfect, given we were all exhausted and drenched from the unexpected rain. The check-in process was seamless and unit # was clearly marked at the driveway as well as the doorway, making it easy to determine which of the duplex we were staying at. Libby was also prompt with her responses the entire time starting from the moment I booked the place (almost 2 months before). The interior felt warm and cozy. The kitchen was well equipped with various appliances. Although we did not get a chance to take advantage of the charcoal grill, fire pit and sauna outside (it was humid and rainy the entire stay), we had a great time unwinding in the house. The minor thing that caught my attention was that there was no cooking oil in the pantry, although it was listed as one of the amenity items. But it was NOT a big deal, as the level of cooking we did was suuuper low. There were so many other essentials (sugar, salt, spices etc) so you can probably cook up various things that kitchen. My sister and I slept in separate rooms that faced the road, and noticed that we could hear the sound of the passing cars at night and early in the morning (no honking or anything, just the sound of cars passing). We were still able to get a good night sleep, but might be bothersome for some light sleepers (almost sounded like a white noise to me, so it didn't really bother me). I would stay again if I come back to the area in the future.

From the minute you turn onto the winding driveway at the entrance of "H'Owl at the Moon", you begin to experience a truly unique, tranquil, and relaxing escape from the stresses of life. The anticipation of seeing the cabin come in to view, and even more exciting, walking through the front door to a charming, well-appointed, adorably decorated home was just the beginning of our special getaway. It was like a treasure hunt going through the cabin, finding all the owls (be sure to read The Enigma of the Owl), discovering the turntable and all the wonderful albums, perusing the extensive collection of DVDs and books, and endless thoughtful touches throughout. Bill even has an iPod on a docking station in the bedroom for listening to music, although we preferred the open windows and listening to the frogs and other outdoor sounds. We cooked out on the charcoal grill, made a bonfire in the fire pit both nights, gazed at the stars, and enjoyed being completely isolated except for the two little black kitty's that were frolicking about. We loved sitting on the front porch waiting for the hummingbirds to keep coming to the feeder. During the day, we explored the surrounding trails and made our way to the waterfall and went for a swim. Even during this time of COVID we managed to go strawberry picking nearby (socially distanced), and picked up a growler at Wild Wolf Brewing curbside. The bed is super comfortable which is something I always appreciate. It's also really nice that there are spices and condiments to use - the kitchen has everything you need. Thank you Bill for sharing your cozy cabin with us, and helping to make my birthday one to always remember. Jenny & Steve

I cannot say enough good things about this house. The cabin is very modern and sparkling clean. It seems like it’s new. We’re a family of four with two doggies and we were very comfortable in it. The location is perfect, there’s other cabins around but they are not so close. The beds are very comfy. There’s even shampoo, conditioner and body wash in the bathroom. You have everything you need for cooking. There’s even a ninja blender for smoothies. The tvs and Netflix is a plus with kids and teens. The deck is big and beautiful with a view of the river and the enclosed area was perfect for our doggies who enjoy sun bathing in the deck. All you need to bring is food and drinking water because they provided all the basic things. The river is super clean but bring water shoes so you’re able to walk on the rocks. We brought a raft and we were dropped off at the bridge. It took us about half an hour to make it to the cabin and it was really enjoyable seeing the fish, turtles, deer and hares. There’s big fish around the bridge if you want to go fishing. The fire pit was a hit with my kids who enjoyed roasting marshmallows every night. Wood is provided. There is a big dollar general store about 15 minutes away where you can find groceries and anything else you might need. We cannot wait to come back to this house! We’ve been to many cabins in the area but this one is our favorite and this part of the Shenandoah river is so much cleaner and nicer. I would give it ten stars if I could. Thank you for helping our family create so many wonderful memories!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Beautiful and Unique Location! I was very happy with how Ian’s cabin exactly matched the description in the app. The view from the porch is truly stunning and a great way to take in the Shenandoah area without needing to drive anywhere if you’d prefer to remain at the cabin. Everything in the cabin was clean and functional. The kitchen appliances and equipment were all in good condition and made making a meal an enjoyable experience. Considering the very private and rural location of the cabin, I found the short 20 minute drive into the town of Luray very convenient. The road leading to the cabin is mostly dirt, steep in some parts and absolutely requires a 4WD/AWD vehicle, but becomes fairly easy after driving it a couple of times (watch for deer!). There were several lady bugs in the house and a couple of beetles, but nothing I wouldn’t expect from a cabin in the woods. Expect to see some wildlife. Highly recommended! Would definitely stay here again!
